Chapter 635: Mountains and forests, vegetable gardens

The next day, Zhao Ta arranged a celebration banquet and feasted the generals.

He was at a table with Mi Zhenting, Huang Shang, and Huo Sijiu, Huang Shang looked a little sullen, and Zhao Ta couldn't help asking.

Huang Xiangli said: "Your Majesty, the dog is so bold that he didn't come back, but ran away with Wanyan Zonghan, how can the minister be relieved." ”

Zhao Ta touched his chin: "This ...... Erlang is afraid that he is eager to make meritorious contributions, and he wants to sneak to Huining, and he will return after beheading Yan Wu and begging to buy, right? ”

Huang Shang: "......?" ”

Zhao Tan smiled and picked up his wine glass: "Old bachelor, everyone, come and drink wine." ”

Everyone toasted together: "When I wait to pay homage to Your Majesty." ”

The feast lasted from noon until the moon rose, and eight out of ten people drank too much.

Xiao Lizhen also drank a lot of wine today, and he was a little drunk.

She was really flustered, she wanted to anesthetize her own house with wine, she didn't find a chance to escape in the barracks, and even fewer chances when she entered Shangjing, and lived in the palace of Liaoxi County with Zhao Tan, Xiao Lizhen and others, and the army outside was guarded layer by layer, and even a bird couldn't fly.

Xiao Lizhi returned to the room in a daze, Huo Xuanji followed back, the two still slept in the same room, the house was a suite, she slept inside, Huo Xuanji slept outside.

Huo Xuanji didn't get a drop of wine, boiled tea and drank it for two people, although Xiao Lizhi was confused in his head, he didn't feel sleepy, and pulled Huo Xuanji to chat, but Huo Xuanji didn't talk much, probably because she kept talking, Huo Xuanji listened expressionlessly.

Until the end, she said that there was still a Ah Huang at home, and she didn't know if her mother helped feed her.

Huo Xuanji said lightly: "Didn't Ling Tang die early?" ”

Xiao Lizhen was immediately shocked into a cold sweat, half of the wine woke up, he had said that his mother had passed away, and he was raised by his father.

In the end, Huo Xuanji was helpless, sneered, dragged her to the inner room, and threw her to the couch.

The next day, Zhao Ta ordered 30,000 soldiers and asked two to go out, Xiao Lizhen was surprised: "Could it be that you are going to fight Hanzhou?" ”

Hanzhou is the first city of Baishan and Heishui, which belongs to Weizhou Road, and was heavily guarded before, but the Jurchens occupied Shangjing, Zhongjing and other places, so they were reduced to the rear and no longer paid attention to it.

But this time the Jurchens lost the territory of the Liao State, and this Hanzhou became important again, and Wanyan Zonghan led the remnants of the army to retreat into the city of Hanzhou, intending to stick to this risk.

Huo Xuanji glanced at her: "What is Hanzhou, Your Majesty is going to sweep the tomb." ”

"Sweep ...... Grave? Xiao Lizhen's eyes widened: "Whose tomb is it sweeping?" ”

"Hehe, Princess Jinguo, Wanyan Baohua!"

"Huh?" Xiao Liqin only felt that his heart was pounding, was it Sister Baohua's tomb? Is Sister Baohua buried here?

She has an impression of Wanyan Baohua, after all, the two families are very close, the parents are cousins, and the mothers are twin sisters, they have often come and go, and she has seen them many times.

However, Wanyan Baohua was much older than her, and she was only five or six years old when she died.

"Ever heard of Baohua?" Huo Xuanji said.

"No, I haven't heard of it!" Xiao Lizhen hurriedly denied it.

"I just know, but I haven't seen it, according to Your Majesty, you look very similar to Princess Baohua."

"Really?" Xiao Lizhen hurriedly shook his head: "No, this can't be, right?" ”

Huo Xuanji snorted, didn't speak again, and took her out.

At that time, Zhao Ta buried Wanyan Baohua on the side of the Liaojin border, in a mountain forest, to the front is Qingcao Gorge, and behind is the border.

The army of 30,000 was ready to go, and with the craftsmen found in the city, they not only had to sweep the tombs, but also erect monuments to repair the tombs.

Zhao Ta didn't want to move Yan Baohua's grave, after all, she betrayed the Jurchens, and it was not good to move back to Huining, and if she moved to the Yang family, it seemed that something was wrong, so she planned to let Baohua sleep here forever, and in the future, the northeast will be pacified, the world will be peaceful, and the whole world will be under the king's land, and everywhere is actually the same.

Shangjing is not close to that side, after all, you have to cross the border, and you don't all take the official road.

There is only half of the official road, and the other is other deserted roads, and the fork in the road is where he and Xiao Min were separated, from here go straight and then cross the border, and go to the mountain forest.

The mountains and forests are some distance away from Hanzhou, and in terms of the current Jurchen troops, there should be no more patrols in that area, even if the border, after all, is in the barren mountains and mountains, and if it is arranged in the rear, it will not be deployed here, even if there is really a patrol, then it will be destroyed.

The army then set out, and the weather was crisp and crisp, and the weather was very pleasant at the beginning of autumn.

If you ride a few fast horses, you will arrive at the mountains and forests on the same day, but the team is large, and the walking is naturally slow, and you will stay overnight in the wilderness at night, and only arrive at the place the next morning.

This mountain forest is extremely inhospitable, and even in wartime, no one has ever come, because the forest is not large, even the hunters are few, and the woodcutters do not come to this border to cut wood.

Zhao Ta followed his memory and led people to the depths, and soon came to Yan Baohua's cemetery.

Just looking at the height of the grass man in front of him, he could faintly see the mound behind the grass, and he ordered the grass branches to be cleared, revealing the middle scene.

It hasn't changed much from that year, except that the mound has become shorter and shorter by the rain over the years, and the wooden planks standing in front of it are damp and mildew, and the rest of the place is the same as when I left.

Xiao Lizhen's expression was difficult to understand, and he secretly thought in his heart, is this the grave of Sister Baohua?

It turned out that Sister Baohua died halfway and was buried here by Zhao Ta, Zhao Ta still has a conscience, she still remembers this place after all these years, and knows that Sister Baohua came to build a tomb.

Zhao Ta looked at the earthen bag for a moment, then asked people to offer incense and pray, and then the monks and Taoists brought from the capital began to chant.

Because he not only wanted to repair the tomb this time, but also to put Baohua's bones into the coffin, it was not good to bury himself in the soil so hastily.

After the ritual was completed, it had been more than an hour, and then the grave was dug and the coffin was not made here, and then the tombstone was erected, on which the origin of the tomb was inscribed.

After everything was complete, incense, candles and fruits were placed to pay tribute, and it was not until it was late that Zhao Ta took people out of the mountains and forests.

On the way, Xiao Li asked: "Your Majesty, isn't this stone monument to build a new tomb, aren't you afraid of tomb robbers?" ”

Zhao Ta said: "The stele explains the origin, there is no accompanying thing, and this place is deserted, where are thieves coming here to dig graves?" Those thieves are stupid, don't go to the Central Plains to rob tombs, go here to dig graves. ”

Xiao Lizhen immediately didn't speak, just muttered something in a low voice, she thought that Zhao Ta couldn't hear it, but she didn't think that Zhao Ta sneered: "Send the coffin back to Huining?" Aren't you afraid that the Jurchen people will crush the treasure flower and scatter the ashes? ”

Xiao Lizhen's face turned pale, and he immediately fell silent.

Zhao Ta then muttered: "Actually, it's not completely impossible, but that's all in the future, don't think about it now." ”

Xiao Li felt that he had to say the wrong thing just now, and he almost showed his stuff, so he nodded hurriedly: "Your Majesty is right." ”

Zhao Ta glanced at her, the corners of his mouth picked, and said, "Get on the horse!" ”

The group got on their horses, and then returned to Shangjing with a large army.

On the second day after Zhao Ta returned to Beijing, he ordered the city gate to be opened and some people were allowed to enter and exit.

However, special certificates are required to enter and exit, which have been issued one after another a few days ago, and not everyone can have them, and residents who do not usually need to go out of the city cannot receive them, and only ordinary people who have to enter the city to make a living on a daily basis or in a short period of time can claim them.

Shangjing has a very large population, if it is not for wartime, it cannot be closed for a long time, otherwise there will be problems in the lives of the people, and Zhao Ta also made this decision after thinking about it.

As for the Jurchen spies, there is no way to completely catch them, but as long as the Jin Kingdom is leveled in the future, then these spies will not be hidden, and they will not dare to set off any storms.

On this day, Zhao Ta was interested, with Huo Xuanji, Xiao Lizhen, as well as the Bai brothers, Luda and others went out to wander, the most famous scenery of Liao is a variety of Buddhist temples and pagodas, there are many pagoda temples in the capital, but the largest is the Beipo Temple in the north of the city and the big Buddha Temple in the south of the city.

There are tower tutu behind the two temples, tall and majestic, the construction is exquisite, beautiful, quite ancient.

As soon as a few people discussed that the Beipo Temple was closer, and the tower was much higher than the Big Buddha Temple, they went there to watch.

Arrived at the Beipo Temple, a look is really a vast Zen forest, at this moment the city is forbidden, the people who come to incense are endless, and the incense is extremely vigorous.

The group walked in, not only looking at the outside of the grandiose, but also inside the temple hall is also numerous, Lu Dadong looked at the west, became tiptoeing, Zhao Ta said: "What is Zhishen doing?" ”

Luda lowered his voice: "Childe, I can't see this kind of place, as soon as I see it, I remember when I was a monk in Wutai Mountain." ”

"Oh?" Zhao Ta smiled: "Didn't you wronged yourself at that time, should you eat and drink?" ”

Ruda Khan said: "Son, it's not so easy, where you dare in the temple, you are presumptuous when you have time to secretly go down the mountain, but you can't hold yourself when you drink too much, and you are full of ugliness, and finally you were sent to the Great Xiangguo Temple in Tokyo by the master, and went to the vegetable garden as a vegetable head." ”

"Tokyo Daxiangguo Temple, a big vegetable garden...... Zhao Ta touched his chin: "Does every Zen temple have a big vegetable garden?" ”

Ruda thought for a moment: "Seems so, right? Wutai Mountain Wenshu Monastery also has a vegetable garden, which is next to the temple, unlike the vegetable garden of Daxiangguo Temple, which is far away, but adjacent to Dongyue Taishan Temple. ”

Zhao Ta said: "The location of the Great Xiangguo Temple is inching on every inch of land, where can the vegetable garden take up the place, there are many industries on the temple, and it is naturally set up in the outfield." ”

Luda said: "Although my subordinates have made a vegetable head, they don't actually know how to grow vegetables, and they only know how to drink and practice martial arts in their days, leading a group of pranky gangsters." ”

Zhao Ta nodded: "I suddenly remembered something. ”

Luda said: "What does Childe think of?" ”

Zhao Ta slapped his palm with a folding fan and said, "You have been a vulgar person for ten years, and you have saved a lot of money, why don't you marry a wife and have children and start a family?" ”

Luda was immediately stunned when he heard this, thinking that he was not a person from the Broken Jade Building, didn't His Majesty keep staring at the broken Jade Building's bachelors and beating them, how could this still beat himself?

Zhao Ta looked at him stunned, and said with a stern face: "You are different from Li Kui, Li Kui is confused, you don't know yourself, but you are not ignorant, how can you die alone." ”

Luda blinked his eyes, and said in his heart that I would be drunk and dream of death when I had nothing to do, where would I have time to take care of my little lady and my family, it would be so troublesome, and how different would it be to be a monk in the temple? I'm afraid that I won't be able to drink wine, I can't play tricks, and I'm so depressed that I can't do anything, and I can't respond to this matter, and I will never marry if Your Majesty talks about smallpox.

Zhao Ta observed his face, and suddenly said: "Let's not talk about the broken jade building for the time being, I see that many of the other generals are also singles, and few of them have the skills of Li Yanxian Han Shizhong, who can arrange family affairs properly, and I am afraid that it will be a bamboo basket to find it by themselves." ”

Lu Daxin said, Your Majesty, you still know, where is this kind of thing easy, how good it is to polish martial arts every day, drink and have fun, who wants to be a burdensome marriage.

However, he said: "These people don't understand Your Majesty's painstaking efforts, they are all idiots." ”

"So......" Zhao Ta looked at Luda with a smile and said: "When the war is over, when I return to Tokyo, I will choose a lady from a good family and assign a marriage match to everyone, so as to save them from being lazy and not looking for it, and finally shirk not being able to find it and fool me." ”

"Huh?" Luda was dumbfounded when he heard this, this is to point to marriage, it is not easy to refuse to point to marriage, that is to resist the will and disrespect.

He hurriedly said: "Childe, you see, the subordinates are now forty out, going straight to fifty people, the so-called forty is not confused, fifty and know the destiny of heaven, there is no need to get married, right?" ”

Zhao Tan shook his head and said slowly: "I chatted with Song Jiang a few days ago, he is older than you, he is really close to fifty, you have to pretend to be old, Song Jiang told me that after the Jurchen is leveled, you will marry a wife and have children, you are extraordinary in martial arts and have a strong physique, is it not as good as him?" ”

When Luda heard this, he immediately scolded in his heart, Song Gongming, who was killed, was really a pervert, I heard that when he was in Yunzhou, he raised an outer room prostitute Yan Poxi, and finally caused trouble and had to fall into the grass Liangshanbo, and now he is not dead, and as soon as he has the right and money, he begins to think about women.

"This, subordinates, subordinates ......" The corners of Luda's mouth twitched, and he replied that he was not stronger than Song Jiang, so he didn't want to marry a wife? The answer is not as good as Song Jiang, it is not good, how can he be inferior to that old black Saburo pervert!

Seeing him snorting, Zhao Ta didn't ask, and walked forward with a fan: "Where is the vegetable garden in the temple, go to see if there are radishes, pluck two to eat......"

In addition to the fact that the tower is not as high as the North Slope Temple, the scale is not smaller than the other party, and there are even more people who come to incense.

The south of the city is a civilian area, where ordinary people live a lot and the population is dense, although it is not as rich as the northern city, but Shangxiang is not ambiguous at all.

Lin Chong took Hu Sanniang to lead Xiao Lin Tu, and entered the Big Buddha Temple with the crowd, he originally wanted to find the abbot directly, but seeing that there were many people today, he couldn't help but whisper: "Lady, look at the people coming and going today, the temple is busy, I'm afraid that the abbot is inconvenient to discuss things, I think it's better to come back another day." ”

Hu Sanniang nodded: "In this case, listen to Lang Jun, go back first." ”

Xiao Lintu said at this time: "Dad, mother, I don't want to go back, I want to go outside." ”

Lin Chong frowned and said, "There are many people at the moment, daddy ......"

Hu Sanniang thought about it: "Since Tu'er wants to go shopping, there are many people here at the moment, so why don't Lang Jun take us to the vegetable garden, just to see how big it is, calculate whether to hire a helper to rent it in the future." ”

Lin Chong groaned slightly, and then said, "Okay, you two come with me......"
